Cambridge Algebra REGENTS Tutoring FAQ
All students in New York State are required to pass the Algebra Regents in order to earn a Regents diploma. If your child is struggling with the material on the exam or simply the effects of test anxiety, Varsity Tutors can help you connect with an Algebra Regents tutor who can assist in their exam prep.
Here is a complete breakdown of the topics covered by the exam, with the range of the item's weight given in parenthesis:
Algebra (50-56%)
Functions (32-38%)
Statistics/Probability (5-10%)
Numbers and Quantity (2-8%)
Algebra Regents tutoring sessions allow students to focus on what they need to know for the test. For example, a student who struggles with Statistics and Probability can emphasize those areas during their Algebra Regents prep. In contrast, classrooms and dedicated review courses are likely to gloss over both areas in favor of Algebra and Functions because of their relative weight.
An experienced Algebra Regents tutor can also answer any questions a student has about the format of the exam. It lasts for three hours, and students are prohibited from leaving early even if they finish with time to spare. Therefore, students should plan to take their time on the test. The use of an approved graphing calculator is also allowed on all portions of the exam, so a tutor may provide practice problems during high school Algebra Regents tutoring sessions to help students get accustomed to using it.
There are two types of questions on the Algebra Regents: multiple-choice and constructed response. Each multiple-choice item includes four possible answer choices, with incorrect responses selected based on mistakes students may make. Knowledgeable tutors may know what some of these mistakes are, allowing students to avoid some incorrect responses even if they do not know the right answer.
Constructed response questions are generally more involved, and students are expected to show their work throughout. Partial credit is available for these items, so tutors are likely to encourage their pupil to show everything just in case it nabs them a few extra points.
Practice exams may be administered during Algebra Regents tutoring sections to give students a feel for exactly what they can expect on test day. The results may also be reviewed to identify any specific strengths and weaknesses that can guide future sessions, improving the efficacy of each.
